Continuing our series of slides featuring long lost views across the rooftops of Salford as seen from the top of Stowell Spire in Ordsall, some of these images are a little blurry but still very much viewable. Our many thanks to Brian Cogswell for allowing us to scan, retouch and display them. The scene below is looking west towards Eccles, you can see what appears to be Barton Power Station to the left on the horizon and Langworthy Flats to the right of the scene. Can you name any of these tower blocks? Sadly the church itself has long been demolished leaving only the spire as a reminder of what once stood there, this image shows the once beautiful façade with it's stained glass windows. Does anyone know what happened to them? Were they sold, used in other churches or did they end up in the scrap?
